Hailing from San Francisco, California, Train has enjoyed global success, with 30 million+ tracks and over 10 million albums sold worldwide. Additionally, the band has had 14 songs on Billboard’s Hot 100 List since the release of their debut self-titled album, released by Columbia in 1998. “Meet Virginia” gave them their first unlikely radio hit and 2001’s “Drops of Jupiter” broke them to multi-platinum status. Another favorite, “Hey, Soul Sister” was the No.1 best-selling smash and most downloaded single of 2010. Train’s studio album, AM Gold, was released in May 2022.
Opening for Train, Better Than Ezra, is named one of the top “100 Greatest Alternative Artists of All Time” by Billboard. The band was originally formed in 1988 at Louisiana State University by Kevin Griffin (lead vocals, guitar, piano) and Tom Drummond (bass, backing vocals). With 1995’s #1 hit “Good”, followed by songs like “Grateful” and “A Lifetime,” Better Than Ezra’s hummable melodies, unshakable guitar riffs and confessional lyrics have quietly cemented the group as an enduring force in rock music.
